This query is : Resolved
My client's husband has filed divorce petition. what should i suggest her. his behaviour towards my client was not good from the beginning. Moreover her parents gifted some property to her husband that he has already sold for doing business and for children's education. She has two college going children. Now he has filed divorce petition and is telling her that i will keep children with me, you perform second marriage. he has mind washed the children too. Should i suggest her to ask for alimony in turn for divorce and lead her own life? and shall the alimony include her parent's property that he has sold? Please suggest.

Your client can claim alimony for herself irrespective of her willingness or not for divorce.

Claim alimony. Contest the divorce petition. With two grown-up childen it is not so easy for him to get the divorce if contested. But this does not have any relation for claiming alimony.

She should claim maintenance if she is not serving.
She should file case of domestic violence.
Contest the case of divorce if she is not going / intent to re-marry in near future.
She can claim alimony and should claim her stridhan.

U have not answered how the property was given to him

If the property was gifted by executing a registered deed on his name, it cannot be reclaimed now once it is sold. She is entitled for alimony and even maintenance now itself if she has been driven out of the house.
